[Vwdiesel] How old is everyone?Can you admit it?

[Bryan Belman]

Hey Dan Cotter.  I would be pretty proud of that accomplishment for sure.
changing a 2002 TDI from Automatic to Stick, that took some work and lots of parts finding I would guess.

when you have more time after retirement, would love a detailed event of what is needed to so that, I am sure many would benefit from that over the years.

Howdy ;

Dan Cotter still lurking here---a long term member--
It is very interesting to read information from our vw friends--
I used to post more info/help previously, may have time to help more as I 
plan to retire in a few months. I guarantee I will put more time and effort 
into recreational pursuits--observed motorcycle trials competition, scuba, 
kayaking, hunting,  fishing--and whatever else I get interested in.

54 years old

I still have the first car I bought at age 15---was 3 Willys Jeepsters 
(1949,1950) that I cobbled into 1 -I plan to put a modern drivetrain under 
it next year. I also still ride the first new Montesa motorcycle I bought in 
Alaska in 1972.

Bought a new rabbit diesel in 1981---drove it 385,000 miles---have owned 
similar vehicles continuously since '81.
i guess i have not gotten very far in life--currently have 3 caddy trucks---

I did just finish putting a manual transmission into a 2002 jeta TDI that 
had a bad automatic; I was able to buy it at a reasonable price. Gee; there 
have been a few advances in the 20 year gap there. Nice car--

Best Wishes
Dan
